Go to any agro product seller or shop, tell them you want to buy Green leaf seeds (eso ewedu).
Preparation of the seeds in readiness for planting:
Step 1 - Boil water for some minutes and put the water down from fire.
Step 2 - Soak the seeds inside the water for some mins
Step 3 - Pour it onto a clothes to remove the water from it and allow it to dry.
Step 4 - After, the seeds has dried up, you can now plant by sprinkling on the prepared nursery bed (tilled land surface)
On the other hand, If you have a cemented surface outside your house, you can take enough sand outside the house and spread on the ground, where erosion or to much water won't disturb it. Then, sprinkle the seed on the sand to plant.
If the land is rich, the plant will start germinating within 2days.
The plants will be ready for harvest after a month earliest.
After that, you are good to go to do anything with it. You can mixed it with beans soup (gbegiri), it a
soup mixture in Yorubaland called Abula. You can devour it with Amala, Semo and Fufu (Akpu).
Come back and say thank you to me when you started enjoying it. You won't have to buy green leaf (ewedu) from the seller. That is what we called peasant farming.
